Soul Care | Week #5

Soul Care | Week #5

There is almost no way the environment that we have been through these past few years has not affected our souls, specifically the feeling of loneliness. In fact research shows that 36% of all Americans, and even more for young adults, feel "serious loneliness". If we are more connected than ever through technology, why is this happening and how do we deal with it? Join us on campus or for Church Online as we look at a famous interaction Jesus had with someone who was lonely as we talk about some of the reasons for this loneliness and how to address them. You can join us in-person or online each Sunday at 10am through http://www.nlnc.online.church.
